What do you want to do?
Manual Trade
Trade is the manual trading terminal: order ticket, candle chart, order book where available, positions, orders and history. You can explore it without signing in; sending orders requires an active connection with trading activation completed. Available exchanges: Hyperliquid, Lighter, Lighter on Robinhood Chain, Aster, Bitunix, Pacifica, Ondo Perps, RISEx, Arcus and TxFlow. Papertrade is also available, with market orders only.
The platform Builder/Integrator fee is currently waived for manual orders for every user. Exchange fees, funding and slippage still apply; this is not a promise of permanently free trading. Bot orders keep their own fees. Complete connection activation even when the manual platform fee is zero. See Fees.
Send an order from the ticket
Choose exchange, account and market
Check all three before sending. The terminal remembers your last exchange and pair; changing exchange keeps the same coin when it is listed there. A coin being available elsewhere does not mean the contract, collateral or balance is the same.
Check direction, margin and leverage
Choose buy/long or sell/short, Cross/Isolated and leverage where supported. The ticket reads the exchange settings and synchronizes changes with your real account. Aster Multi-Asset requires Cross; Ondo Perps uses Cross, One-way and whole-number leverage. These are not just display settings. Use the leverage slider or type the value: the maximum is the market maximum (up to 1000x on Papertrade) and, if you type more, the ticket stays at that maximum and warns you.
Choose Market, Limit or Scaled
Market seeks immediate execution, but the fill price can differ. Limit uses your chosen price and may remain open or fill partly. Scaled distributes one total amount across several limit orders; read the preview before confirming. On Market orders for Hyperliquid, Lighter, Lighter on Robinhood Chain, RISEx, Arcus and TxFlow you can set Max slippage: it caps the worst price you accept, and whatever cannot fill within that limit does not fill.
Review amount and order value
Check the unit next to Amount: the base coin and the account's quote currency are different inputs. For an opening order sized in quote currency, leverage converts that budget into position value. Read the displayed Margin and Order value; notional is position value, not the money you are willing to lose. The Amount field shows both units side by side; press the one you want to use. Buying power = available × ticket leverage. Under the summary, the account block shows equity, Margin in use, Margin ratio (margin in use ÷ equity) and Open PnL, and the Position block summarizes size, entry, mark, liquidation and unrealized PnL for the selected market.
Review protection and execution options
Reduce only is for reducing an existing position. Post only requests maker execution for limit orders and can be rejected if the order would immediately cross the book. Bitunix offers TP/SL attached to a non-reduce-only entry; on other exchanges, use the position's TP/SL controls when available. Do not assume every ticket sends protection with the entry.
Send once and check the result
Follow Positions, Manual Orders and History, and verify on the exchange if the result is uncertain. Accepted or open does not mean filled. Do not repeat an order simply because a response is late.
Scaled orders are not a grid bot
Set the lower and upper price, 2–20 orders and the total amount. The preview distributes prices evenly across the range and splits that total among the orders. Each individual order must meet the market's minimum and precision rules. Confirm the list before sending; some orders can succeed while others fail. These are manual limit orders: they do not automatically replace fills or run recurring cycles.
If a bot uses that pair on that account, manual orders, chart order changes and leverage/mode changes are blocked, including while the bot is paused, starting or closing. Stop or remove it through its own documented controls and wait for completion; a Delta Neutral bot releases its legs when it returns to Idle. Never use Pause as a workaround. Manual-order cancellation and supported isolated-margin adjustments remain available. Use a different account or pair if you want independent manual trading.
Favorites and Activity
Favorite coins
The star favorites a coin across exchanges, not just one DEX pair. Chart shortcuts open it on the selected exchange. A shortcut is disabled if that exchange does not list the coin; removing the star removes it across exchanges.
All markets and exchange filters
All markets shows activity across your connections and clears the DEX filter. Click a DEX logo to narrow the panel to that exchange; click it again to clear the filter. Filters affect what you see, not your real positions.
Positions and orders
Positions shows exposure and PnL. Manual Orders shows pending manual orders; Bot Orders shows bot activity. Clicking the pair in a position or manual order loads its market and account on the chart.
Close and share
For an eligible manual position, Close lets you choose a partial or full amount and Market or Limit. A limit close may not fill. The PnL share button creates a card for an open position, including bot positions; sharing does not trade or close anything.
Bots tab
Next to Manual orders, the Bots tab lists the bots that use the selected pair on that exchange. Each row has Details, Edit (opens in a side panel without leaving Trade) and the same controls as the bot page: pause/resume, power off or close and delete, with the same confirmations.
Privacy eye
The eye in the Activity header hides sizes, margins, PnL, order amounts, history and the ticket balance; prices and percentages stay visible. It shares the choice with the Account eye.
Manual order alerts
You get a notification when a manual order fills, when a TP or SL triggers and when an order is rejected, following your Order notifications level and enabled channels.
Trading Agent on Trade
When signed in, the agent mascot sits in a corner. You can drag it anywhere on the screen; pressing it opens the help chat with trading suggestions (TP/SL, pairs used by a bot, entry plan).
If something is missing or blocked
| Symptom | What to check |
|---|---|
| No active account | Select the correct connection and complete verification/activation in Account → Exchanges. |
| Manual trading blocked by a bot | Use the bot's own controls. Pause alone does not release the pair. |
| Amount too small | Check the minimum after rounding; for Scaled, every order must meet it. |
| Position missing from Activity | Choose All markets to clear exchange filtering, then compare with the exchange. |
| Order status uncertain | Check live orders and fills on the exchange before trying again. |
